Remove as much wax as possible by hand using a serrated knife to help scrape the wax from the carpet fibers. Then take a brown paper bag and cut a section that is twice the size of the affected carpet area and place over the wax stain. Then take a preheated electric iron set on medium and "iron" over the paper bag piece. The wax in the carpet will melt and be absorbed into the paper. Several tries may be necessary using fresh pieces of brown paper bag to get all of the candle wax out.

How can you prevent candle wax from sticking?

I always had a problem with the melted wax sticking to my candle holders and ended up either scratching or breaking them trying to get the wax off.
